was also an option on the special models ie. premier, the first owner decided to have the optional alloys but not P/S. Not even funny.

it's a P reg corsa so it hasnt got Power Steering LOL.

she did have a Merit with 155/80*13 tyres, the steering was just about manageable for her, but now she has a better Corsa with 155/70*13 tyres and the steering is noticeably heavier, of course this could be due to the lower profile tyres, but i'm not too sure, is there a part of the steering mechanism that is prone to getting rusty due to lack of grease or summat.

otherwise i suspect an easy way out is to put some 155/80*13 on the front maybe this will help

what say you peep's ?
